Ok just updating my Bass growout ponds i started this year.
PER ACRE~
March:
20 lbs FH's
100 3-6 CNBG

May:
20 lbs Tilapia

June: 200 2" Florida bass


Ok, I fertilized the pond from March untill June. The FH's spawned successfully and were visable by the 10000's. Before i stocked the Tilapia I saw a few 1" CNBG fingerlings along the bank. Since then the Tilapia have had several successfull spawns with the first YOY around 2" long already.

However, I don't seem to see any fingerling CNBG now. they appear to all just be Tilapia.

Only thing I can think of is they moved to a little deeper water. I will say one thing the Tilapia fingerlings have really cleaned house on the pond bottom. They are eating everything.

Reason Im a little concerned is next year I will add Tilapia again but I would like to have a lot of CNBG ready to spawn next year insteatd of only the 100 that I have now.

I can always add more next March at 3-6" but I was hoping the origanal 100 would take care of that for free.
